I did not predict anything because whatever the hardware is the games matter and Nintendo delivers I just want a beautifully designed console so it looks good near my telly. As long as its on par with or better than the U, which it had to be, I'll be happy so me being hyped means I will not be disappointed in any probable way

What about games? Also do you not buy Nintendo handhelds? Finally does price not influence your decision?

Going in with no expectations

I may be even buying NX at launch if it has Zelda and Zelda is not released before on Wii U.

If it doesn't have Nintendo games, then yes, I would be very disappointed...

It'd be an insta-buy, it's the only way to play Nintendo games,so....

If it just launches cheap, then thats fine.

A tablet style console is okay with me, if its in the 199-249$ range, and they manage to unify their games library, so we have more game output from them.

I am hoping for a tablet with snap on Wiimotes and a supplementary processing unit to beef up the performance when in console mode.

Either that or one platform across multiple form factors.

If Nintendo does something else, I am sure there's a good chance I'll probably like it. As far as I'm concerned, Nintendo has released 10 major platforms, and I loved 7 of them, was disappointed with 3 of them, that's 70% success.
Also, you can even bump that up to 80%, my disappointment level with the N64 was mostly to do with the loss of third parties, all the RPGs gone, and the use of cartridges. BUT, Nintendo more than made up with it with two phenomenal Zelda games, Mario Kart 64, and about 6 or 7 AWESOME games from Rare.

On the other hand, GameCube and Wii U ended up being 2-3 game systems for me, and I ended up only playing each for a matter of months. So I consider those to be duds.

Then on the otherhand, Wii, DS, SNES, and NES were consoles I dumped years and years into. I still play DS and Wii games regularly to date, and SNES and NES games I also played years after the console generation was over. I think the thing that finally made me turn the SNES off for the last time were GBA and Wii ports nearly a decade after SNES was dead. With the NES, I forget why, but I am pretty sure it's because my console broke. I have played about a dozen ports/remakes of NES and SNES games in 2016.

I will cry myself to sleep.

I'm waiting to see, but I don't have high expectations for how it will perform anymore.
